The Twin Cities Chapter of the Military Mama Network, the Minnesota Patriot Guard and the Military Salute Project invite you to join us in sending cards to the nearly 1,000 residents of Minnesota's five Veterans Homes to thank them for their service and hopefully brighten their day. Individuals, groups and organizations nationwide are encouraged to participate.

 

The Minneapolis Veterans Home has approx 525 residents, the Hastings Veterans Home approx 200 residents, the Silver Bay Veterans Home approx 90 residents, the Fergus Falls Veterans Home approx 100 residents and the Luverne Veterans Home approx 85 residents.

Your card or letter can include a note of thanks and appreciation for the Veteran's service. We hope to be able to give every resident at least one. Packs of 10 generic "Thank You" cards with envelopes are available at Target or Walmart for about $5.00.

 

Please mail cards for the Minneapolis Veterans Home and/or the Hastings Veterans Home and/or the Fergus Falls Veterans Home to Lynn Soler, the Twin Cities Military Mama Network Chair. Lynn will allocate and deliver the cards in bulk to the respective homes. If you wish to send a card to all three homes, please mail them in separate envelopes. Print MPLS in the lower left corner of the front of one envelope, print HAST in the lower left corner of the front of the second envelope, and print FERG in the lower left corner of the front of the third envelope.
